NYC MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT LAWYER

Motorcycle accidents have been found to be 15 times more likely to result in a fatality than auto accidents. Furthermore, of the 4,855 motorcycle accidents reported in 2011 in New York, none resulted in the death of the automobile driver or passenger while 171 led to the death of the motorcycle driver and / or passenger.
